Description
This tower was built in 1932. Its cab was replaced in 2008 after damage had taken its toll on the previous cab.
The tower was staffed intermittently during spring fire season until 2015 when Wisconsin decommissioned its lookout network. As of early 2022, this tower was for sale by the state.
